Thanks for Radiant Heat

During this “month of gratitude”, many homeowners are expressing thanks for their radiant heat systems. Whether they’re heating their homes or keeping their driveways and roof eaves free of snow and ice, customers are grateful for the effectiveness and efficiency of radiant heat.

Radiant floor heating systems are becoming very popular among new homeowners today, as the efficiency and luxury of the systems are unparalleled. There are a variety of systems, each with their own unique features and benefits.

One of the most popular electric floor heating systems is the ComfortTile® system. This popular floor heating system is perhaps the most versatile. The system features thin heat resistance cable that is available in individual lengths off the spool, or pre-spaced in flexible mats (with an adhesive backing) that can be rolled out for quick, convenient installation. Although ComfortTile is remarkable versatile, it is particularly well suited for heating ceramic tile, vinyl tile, marble, and stone floors. The ComfortTile floor heating cable carries a 25-year warranty.

For those looking to heat floating floors, perhaps the most popular and highly recommended solution for this application is FilmHeat™. This innovative floor heating system utilizes an ultra-thin heating element that is just 0.016-inch thick, which is laid out over the underlayment on the subfloor, and then the floating floor is installed directly over the element. There is no need for mortar, self-leveling compounds or other special tools. The system is highly effective and convenient to install.

Another outstanding floor heating system features heat cable that is installed directly in the concrete slab. In-Slab™ floor heating systems are affordable, and perhaps the most efficient systems on the market. Because the heat cable is designed to withstand the rigorous demands of concrete slab installations, the cable is thicker than most other floor heating cable. The cable is installed so that it remains about 2-inches below the surface of the concrete. Just about any type of flooring can then be installed over the concrete floor. This is one of the most popular systems for heating cold basement floors, or any floors on concrete slabs.

While homeowners love the comfort and efficiency within the walls of their homes, they are also grateful for their dependability when it comes to keeping driveways and sidewalks clear of snow and ice during the winter months.

Radiant snow melting systems are fully automated and maintenance free, so once a system is installed, there’s no need to worry about activating it or maintaining it. The automated systems rely on a snow sensor (activation device) that detects temperature and precipitation to trigger the system. When the temperature is below the adjustable set point (typically set at 39°F) and precipitation is detected, it sends a signal to the control panel, which is typically mounted on a wall in the garage. The controller then sends power to the embedded heat cable to warm the area and prevent snow and ice from building up. Aerial mount sensors and ground mount sensors are both available, depending on the customers preference.

In addition to providing a wide selection of the industry’s most trusted products, Warmzone provides customer support services that truly set it apart from the competition. Customers agree that one of the most valuable services is Warmzone’s free installation training. This training can be completed online, via web conference, where an experienced instructor personally covers every aspect of your installation. The installer can interact and ask questions at any time during the training, which includes installation photos, illustrations, and video clips.

Additionally, when customers purchase a Warmzone system, professional system designers create a detailed layout for the system. In addition to a detailed layout of the system components, the design also includes all of the proper materials, specifications, and electrical information needed by your electrician. This layout serves as the roadmap for installers, and helps to ensure all the system components are installed correctly.

Warmzone also extends full-time installation support personnel. If installers have a question during the installation, they can call Warmzone and speak with a friendly radiant heat expert. Warmzone also maintains relationships with experienced installers around the country, so we may be able to recommend a trusted, experienced installer in your area.
